Joined primarily to learn a bit more. Been collecting Relide brand watches for a good few years now but current project is to replace the 2813 in my replica IWC mk xvi with another 2813 for £10 ebay !!  screw down spring loaded crown on the stem which will need swapping to the new one. I'd love to get a 2892-a2 in there (since the real ones have had a 30110 itself a derivative of that ETA engine, I think...) if the dial lines up.

Also got a real Omega seamaster classic from 1982 with a dead 1337 movement and will ask specific question / proposal / can this be done / idea... about that in the general forum.

Cheers

Luke

    • Not sure, but just looking at it, it seems like the screw on the right may be a fake? The one on the left may not be a screw in the regular sense at all, rather a 2 position device, I think you need to point the slot towards either of the 2 dots and one will secure and one will open. Like I said this is just my best guess looking at the pictures.
    • Hi! I am in the process of restoring a rado captain cook mkII. I want to remove the rotor, but I am not sure how to and need some help. As you can hopefully see on the photo there are 2 screws. The left one has two positions, the right one looks like a regular screw. I have tried turning the right one, but it does not give even after using more force than I would expect. Anyone know the function of the left screw with the two positions and how to remove the rotor? Thanks!!
    • Welcome to the group Stirky. You can search for just about every subject in the craft here. Don't be afraid to ask if you can't find the answer that may have already been covered ( some ad nauseum LOL ). You don't have to buy Bergeon to get good quality. There are many decent mid-range tools available that will last you a lifetime. Cousins would be a good place to start . Cheers from across the pond ! Randy
    • I picked up a similar amount of these jewels some years ago in a watch and clock fair. Every now and then they come in handy. This week I've got a rubbed in bombe jewel in the balance cock that is cracked and needs replacing. Very handy to have a vintage assortment of these type of jewels!
